Orion Blackwood once loved me. I remember it all too well. When a rival at a dinner party sneered that I had slept my way to the top of the art world, Orion immediately bought out her commercial contracts for the entire next year, making it clear to all of Seattle who reigned supreme. When I complained that a certain type of out-of-production black and white film was discontinued, he pulled strings to buy the entire remaining stock from a fallen European aristocrat. That was the man who had once treated me like a treasured jewel. Yet, on the opening night of the most important solo exhibition of my career, he projected the digital graffiti of another woman—Scarlett—onto the museum's exterior wall for all the guests to see. Scarlett was the up-and-coming artist Orion claimed to be "sponsoring." Under his protection, she was convinced that I was the only thing standing in her way. In her narrative, I was cast as the villain—the jealous wife using her fading fame and powerful husband to sabotage a rising “genius.” Orion assured me it was just "performance art," meant to create buzz for my exhibition. But when a famous collector asked him to sign my work's bill of sale as a guarantee, he instinctively pulled the nearby Scarlett into his arms—a purely protective gesture. In that moment, I understood. His sanctuary was no longer for me. The perfect statue he had so carefully sculpted had finally cracked. It was time for me to shatter it with my own hands.

Kobe Coleman has no name for what he is becoming. On their own continent, the Skyborns have built the Order over three centuries. Its Skyhunters carry out divine will and extend their dominion across the six continents of the world including Adinkrahene, land of the Blackeils, now reduced to a colony under surveillance. The lie has a name. The Blackeils. The only people who do not use the five senses to channel their energy, the Blackeils draw from memory their own, that of their ancestors, that of objects which have lived too long. A people who cannot lie to their own memory is a people that cannot be controlled. So five continents allied to erase them. Today, those who survive are slaves, fugitives, or hidden beneath another name. Kobe is twenty years old. He grew up in Amnesia, raised by a taciturn bookbinder who pushed bread his way without lifting his eyes. He read in secret the books the Order burns. He dreamed of becoming a Skyhunter. He did not know that his father had spent twenty years waiting for someone to come kill him, nor that his mother was Aaliyah Coleman a woman of a lineage so powerful that an Architect had been sent personally to eliminate her. One morning, that Architect arrives. When Kobe flees Amnesia, he will have no father left. No home. No dream. No certainty about what he is. He will have a road heading south, a sword that speaks to him with arrogance, and a memory that is beginning to show him lives he has never lived. Across six continents that carve up a world through sense and ancient power, Kobe Coleman will have to understand why someone wanted to erase his bloodline. What his mother truly represented. And what it means to carry within himself the memory of an entire people the world believed dead. Some forget in order to survive. Kobe Coleman will not have that choice.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

"Tempat tidurmu dingin," ujar sebuah suara di ruang itu, membuat matanya melebar ketakutan. Dengan gugup, dia berbalik, menelan ludah ketika melihat bayangan di tempat tidurnya seolah-olah seseorang berbaring di sana. Pria yang berbaring itu duduk, muncul dari bayangan tempat dia menunggu dia. "Apa yang kamu lakukan di sini?" dia bertanya ketika kakinya menyentuh tanah dan dia mendorong dirinya bangun untuk mulai berjalan ke arahnya. Wajah tampannya terlihat lebih gelap dari biasanya karena kurangnya cahaya di ruangan itu. "Aku datang untuk menemuimu," dia memiringkan kepalanya, "Ke mana kamu pergi?" "Aku pergi berjalan-jalan," jawaban cepatnya membuatnya tersenyum, senyum yang paling menakutkannya. Dia melangkah mundur ketika dia mendekatinya. Ini tidak menghentikannya dari menyudutkannya, dan punggungnya membentur dinding di belakangnya. Dia mengangkat tangannya ke wajahnya, dan dia menutup matanya, ketakutan. Dia gemetar ketika jarinya menelusuri dari pelipisnya, rahang dan lehernya. Rambut pirangnya dibiarkan terbuka. "Di tengah malam?" dia tidak menjawabnya karena tahu dia bisa menerka kebohongannya melalui kata-katanya. Dia melangkah lebih dekat hingga dia memalingkan wajah darinya dan kata-katanya bergetar di kulit lehernya, "Apakah kamu pergi menemuinya, gadis manisku?"
